IT IS ONE OF THE LONGEST RUNNING OLDIES SERIES ON RADIO THAT CONTINUED AFTER HIS PASSING USING DICK'S SEGMENTS FROM PAST SHOWS WITH A NEW HOST.IRONICALLY, THE SHOW ORIGINATED WITH DICK'S SEGMENTS AND HIM NOT THE HOST BECAUSE AT ITS INCEPTION, DICK WAS UNDER CONTRACT WITH MUTUAL BROADCASTING. UNTIL HIS CONTRACT EXPIRED IN 1986, NOTED LA DJ GENE WEED HOSTED FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER FAMOUS LA DJ, MARK ELLIOT, WITH DICK JOINING THEM.THE EARLIEST SHOWS WERE RELEASED IN A BOX SET FORM WITH A BLACK BOX. IT SOON CHANGED TO A BOX SET IN RED, THEN TO AN ALBUM ENCLOSING THE FOUR LPs, THEN TO CD IN A BOX IDENTICAL TO THE RED LP BOX DESIGN, AND FINALLY THE 4 CDs WERE JUST SENT IN A STANDARD MAILER TO STATIONSIT WAS UNIQUE AMONG RADIO SHOWS BECAUSE IT WAS DICK CLARK, PROBABLY THE BEST KNOWN AND MOST POPULAR DJ OF ALL TIME. EACH SHOW HAD AN ARTIST FEATURE THAT RAN THROUGH THE ENTIRE FOUR HOURS, TWO SEGMENTS OF THE FIVE IN EACH HOUR. THERE WAS ALSO A YEAR TRIBUTE ON EACH SHOW THAT RAN THROUGH THE FOUR HOURS. EACH SHOW CONTAINED MULTIPLE INTERVIEWS AND SPECIAL FEATURES. WHOLE SEGMENTS WERE DEVOTED TO THEMES SUCH AS LAST HITS, NEVER A NUMBER ONE HIT, ONE HIT WONDERS, TOP MALE ARTISTS, TOP FEMALE ARTISTS, GIRLS NAMES, BOY NAMES, TRIOS, DUOS, SUMMER HITS, TWO AMERICAN BANDSTAND (OF COURSE) SEGMENTS IN EACH SHOW WITH DICK REMINISING ABOUT ALL THE GREAT EARLY YEARS OF BANDSTAND, AND SO MANY MORE; EVERY SHOW HAD DIFFERENT FEATURES. THE SONGS WERE ALL WOVEN TOGETHER IN THEMES ON EACH SEGMENT OF THE SHOW COMPRISING APPROXIMATELY 4 SEGMENTS EACH HOUR FOR A TOTAL OF ABOUT 12 SEGMENTS FOR THE ENTIRE SHOWAS OPPOSED TO ALMOST EVERY OTHER RADIO SHOW, DICK ALWAYS DID HIS BETWEEN SONG COMMENTARY UTILIZING WHAT ARE CALLED 'MUSIC BEDS' WHICH MEANS THAT HE PLAYED BACKGROUND MUSIC UNDER HIS TALKING. OFTEN THESE 'BEDS' WERE UNIQUE AND RARE PRESENTATIONS FROM THE MOST POPULAR ARTISTS, SOMETIMES THEY WERE OF LESSER KNOWN ARTISTS. IT IS A TOTAL EDUCATION INTO EARLY ROCK MUSIC LISTENING TO ONE OF THESE SHOWS AND FOLLOWING ALONG THE CUE SHEETS TO SEE THE 'MUSIC BEDS' BEHIND HIS TALKING.ANOTHER SPECIAL PART OF THIS SHOW WAS THAT IT INCLUDED BOTH THE EARLY ROCK SONGS FROM THE 50'S, ALONG WITH THE GREAT 60'S AND THE EARLY 70'S. MOST OLDIES SHOWS ABANDONED THE DAWN OF ROCK AND FOCUSED ON THE 60'S AND 70'S (AND LATER AS THE YEARS WENT BY)EACH SHOW COMES ON FOUR NICELY DECORATED LP's. in mint, like new condition THIS SHOW AIRED ASUGUST 26, 1989 AND WAS SHOW #394IT FEATURED A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO TOM JONES WITH MANY OF HIS GREATEST HITS ALONG WITH GREAT INTERVIEWS Most people even enjoy the national commercials that are included on the show because some 40 years later they sound fresh and bring back a more innocent time! On this show you will hear vintage commercials from Fox Open House, Norrell Temps, Hallmark, Chrysler, Wrigley Gum, Kodak Batteries, British Knights, Wrestlemania, Goodyear, and more. NOW, IF YOU DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT RADIO SHOWS, PLEASE READ ON AND ALSO HEAR MY OWN PERSONAL STORY OF HOW I CAUGHT THE RADIO SHOW FEVER! (AND BEWARE, YOU MIGHT JUST BE NEXT!! THERE IS NO KNOWN CURE!!!)FIRST, HERE ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS IF YOU DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT RADIO SHOWS: WHAT IS A RADIO SHOW? WHY COLLECT THEM? WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? Well, those are good questions, especially if you have never known of them. I, myself, discovered radio shows quite by accident while reading one of my favorite (long since departed) magazines called "Discoveries" (It was later bought by the same company that publishes "Goldmine" which I personally always considered a lesser publication, but that is another story. This was before ebay became the driving force in radio show sales (and everything else) in the later 1990's. I was especially attracted in "Discoveries" to a two page (or more) spread in each issue by a guy called "The Old Hippie". Let me tell you, the Old Hippie had it all. He was a real pioneer. Way before anyone knew what radio shows even were let alone that they could be bought as rarities, he had the market cornered.Most shows that he advertised were way beyond my budget but I drooled over those pages every issue and once in awhile I could afford one or two. Now, I have attempted in my own humble way to take on the mantle of "The Old Hippie". I have listed over 11,000 unique radio shows of all genres for you all to drool over, and most at prices, hopefully, that collectors can better afford! I want to make available to collectors what I could not afford and especially in these days of higher prices and lesser availability.Radio shows are harder and harder to find in quantity and the prices for the ones still out there just go higher and higher as they disappear from the market. However, because of my large presence on eBay, I am always being contacted with selling offers, some of which I take advantage of and some I have to pass on because of the prices. I have found that by buying in bulk, even when many or most of the shows are lesser known but still amazing shows, I can offer the best prices on all titles. So, again, what is a radio show? Radio Shows are syndicated productions by one of several large and small distributors who supply broadcast product to radio stations normally during weekends when the usual air personalities have a break. Many air on Saturday or Sunday mornings, afternoons or evenings or less often during overnight segments. They often feature some of the best known voices for their genre from across the country thus the Dick Clark's and Casey Kasem's and Rick Dees and Dick Bartley and so many others. People collect them for various reasons. Some just collect the series because they like it and want them all. Some collect their favorite artists or genre of music. Rather than an album by the artist or a compilation, they have a unique presentation of their favorite artist or music not available anywhere else and often with dj presentation which is very entertaining. Some collect interviews with their favorite artists as most shows had interview segments. Some collect commercials especially old car commercials but certainly not limited to only those. AND, these shows are in limited quantity. They were pressed just for affiliate stations and many have just a few in circulation. Some of the more popular shows may have as many as a few hundred of each week's show that survived but think about it. A few hundred for some 200 million Americans and millions of overseas collectors who look for unique presentations of their favorite artists or form of music. Many radio stations just tossed them away after airing because they could never be aired again due to the time limited commercials and the limited storage space at most radio stations (believe me I know, I worked at one for over seven glorious years as an oldies dj emulating the master!)SO they are increasingly hard to find. They were first distributed on reel to reel tape or on lp, later on CD and even later (after 2000 for most shows) on CDR. Now they are not available at all to collectors since they are distributed by digital download much like you get your music from iTunes. These shows become rarer and rarer every day because the people who buy them hold on to them. The shows that you get now and hold on to will never decrease in value and only increase. I have prided myself since the start to provide the best and fairest cost with a no holds barred guarantee that you will be happy or I refund your money. I sell them for near what I bought them for. I give volume discounts and discount postage always. As the postal service increases their rates, my shipping rates over the years has decreased. And, I have one of the biggest radio show libraries in the world consisting of over fifteen thousand shows, so many that I don't even know all that I have and am sometimes amazed when I go to look for one show and find another that I did not realize I had. Finally, it is Americana at its best. Whether the show be from the 60's or 2000's, rock, countdown, oldies, country, classical, religious, jazz or big band, it is unique and home grown. And you just can't find them anywhere. Even record stores that still exist will rarely have any. Radio shows are wonderful representations of the real golden age of radio at least music wise. And every one you buy is an original, not a copy, not a remake - all limited editions in the hundreds at most and many much less. Once you get hooked, like me, it is a love affair for life! Remember, when you buy these shows, not only will you own the tunes in immaculate condition, but also interspersed between songs is fascinating commentary on the artists and songs and wonderful interview segments and other features. Also, keep in mind that this and all shows are not just about the music - the music can be found anywhere. It is the mixture of great music and great announcing that makes it so entertaining. As well, it is a piece of radio history. You just aren't going to find these shows anymore. Think of what they will be worth in a few years! (IF you wanted to sell.) I am selling to share with other music lovers what I was able to get at a reasonable price It is a great show and would be a valuable addition to your collection Good Luck and God Bless You.
